'Survivor: Cambodia – Second Chances:' Shocking twist about the new hidden immunity idols

The Hidden Immunity Idol may well be considered as the most shocking twist that the "Survivor" reality series has ever introduced to the game since it first showed up on "Survivor: Guatemala." This pocket-size charm allows any players who found it to be immune at any tribal council, should they decide to use it. This upcoming season, the reality show is adding not only one twist in this game-changing tool, but two.

The show's longtime host, Jeff Probst, told Entertainment Weekly last May during an interview on site, that they have changed the designs of the immunity idols hidden in the game. Probst teased, "One idol will look really fancy and the next idol will look like a 5-year-old made it." The host said that because of these new changes in the hidden idol's design, the castaways will have to work harder to convince their alliances that it is a real idol. He also mentioned that players will also have a lot of opportunity to create a fake hidden immunity idol. "They won't know which is up and which is down. You can play all angles on this," he continued.

Another game-changer this season, which will make the dynamics of the show more interesting, is that hidden immunity idols will now be up for grabs, even during the challenges. Probst is excited to see if the players will be sneaky enough to get it, or just snatch it up while everybody is looking. "There is no search. The only question is, can you do it in front of your tribe in the middle of a challenge and get away with it? I love that," he added. Probst also teased that there are more surprises in store this season since these players are all veterans of the game, and he believes that the "Second Chancers" can handle more pressure.
